(Chorus)Beware of a tall dark strangerIf he comes ridin' into your townA tall dark stranger is danger (danger)So don't let no stranger hang aroundFor he can capture the heart of a womanWith one glance from his flashing brown eyesLike a bolt from the blue he can steal her from youThen jump up on his pony and ride ride ride(Repeat Chorus)They say a tall dark stranger is a demonAnd that a devil rides closely by his sideWith no warning he can strike like the thief in the nightThen jump up on his pony and ride ride ride(Repeat Chorus)
